Seven Science-Backed Ways to Speed Up Recovery From Hockey

When you master your input, you master your recovery, and when you master your recovery, you master your hockey performance.

You know that feeling you get when you have an amazing workout or game? Your body aches, you’re having trouble walking and you’re cursing your legs every few seconds of the day?
